This release includes assert_matches!(), new range types in core::range::*, and fixes for a medium and a low severity vulnerability in Cargo (that didn't affect crates.io users).

“Can I just say f**k AI, f**k AI, f**k AI?” the comedian, actor, and rotating host of The Daily Show asked in his keynote speech during the Class Day celebration on Wednesday. The crowd at Tercentenary Theatre, made up of the graduating Class of 2026 and their friends and families, answered him with a roar of approval. https://www.harvardmagazine.com/commencement/class-day-ronny-chieng-harvard
Right now I have 9.8 problems, and all of them are meters per second per second.

@SRAZKVT i also quite like this paper from xerox parc on fractional cascading https://sci-hub.st/10.1007/BF01840440 which uses this strange geometric terminology but can be applied to the fractal zip normalized i/o state format
@SRAZKVT "we wish to thank robert tarjan for many useful comments on the manuscript" literally i would cry
Over the summer, I will attempt to configure Linux to use printers from over 40 different countries.
Yes, I am part of the World CUPS.
I ensure better printer compatibility by religiously enforcing the use of software-based RIP preprocessing for any vector-based assets.
Yep, I'm a rasterfarian.

@mkljczk Vivaldi has some good ideas but they also seem to have a compulsive need to fuck with things
What do we think about [tags.pub](http://tags.pub), the fedi node that appears to create a bot to retoot any hashtag that gets an appreciable number of boosts? It's created a bunch of bots off the back of some of my more popular hashtag abuses.

@SRAZKVT you've hit upon something i hadn't been able to name in my fit of rage which is yeah a "table" always has some particular set of access patterns as well as constraints/requirements for data sharing vs growing/mutability. i rly like this paper from two foreign students studying in louisiana who cite a cool twitter project and then proceed to completely leapfrog over it https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3267809.3267847

Il Papa sulla defederazione: l'enciclica papale parla della interconnessione e reciprocità dei nodi indipendenti
Protocolli come atproto e ActivityPub affermano di funzionare come un livello sociale globale per "tutti", e dato che la maggior parte del mondo è religiosa, ciò che il leader religioso più influente al mondo dice sui social network online è importante

@Unixbigot Hi! I'm the main developer of tags.pub. I'm also one of the authors of ActivityPub. I work for the Social Web Foundation, a non-profit created to help make the Fediverse better for everyone. So, no scam.
I think tags.pub is great! The whole point is to make it easier for people to connect to topics they care about here on the Fediverse. I've really enjoyed using it for popular Fediverse-wide tags like #monsterdon or #HashTagGames.
‘“Insulting to Jesus Christ.” LOL, as if Jesus isn’t up in Heaven right now annoying his dad like “Is TODAY the day I get to dropkick Donald Trump into a fiery eternal hell? What about now? What about now? What about now?” Jesus and his Father are always having conversations like that.’ 🤣 https://www.wonkette.com/p/democrats-slap-sht-out-of-ugly-fck
